Quite terrible. Ridiculously overpriced, even by “stereotypical SF professional cafe” standards. Tea is ok flavor wise, but nothing better than what you can make at home with some slightly-better-than average tea bags, which for $7 it’s a complete scam. The ambience is completely mediocre and the service is bare-minimum. I don’t understand what the value proposition here is or who thinks this deserves anything more than the lowest review score. But worst of all is the fraudulent 4% charge they add in to your already overpriced order, which the reader must be reminded Should be Illegal!

Stopped by Blue Bottle in SF and had a cappuccino that really hit the spot. The espresso was smooth with a nice depth, and the milk was perfectly textured — creamy without being too heavy. The space itself has that clean, modern Blue Bottle vibe, great for a quick coffee break or to sit and recharge. It’s a busy spot during the workday rush, but the quality is consistent and worth it. A solid go-to if you’re in the Financial District and need a well-made cappuccino.

An absolute gem in the heart of San Francisco! Blue Bottle Coffee delivers a perfect blend of style, flavor, and comfort. The stunning floor-to-ceiling windows flood the space with light and offer beautiful city views—making it an ideal spot to unwind, get creative, or dive into work. The vibe is effortlessly cool, the space spacious and thoughtfully laid out.
Now, let’s talk taste—every sip of their matcha latte was heavenly, and the blueberry and lemon cakes? Pure delight! The coffee is smooth, bold, and truly addictive. Plus, the staff are warm, attentive, and make you feel right at home. Whether you’re popping in for a quick pick-me-up or planning to camp out for a few hours, this place hits every mark. Can’t wait to return!

Good morning Blue Bottle 💙
To the great professional staffing. You all exceeded my expectations. I love the quality of Cafe Mocha. The gentleman that makes the coffee does an excellent job. I have no complaints about the price. Instead I wish the chair was slight comfortable. Instead I do like the benches.I love blue bottle. I haven't ordered food. I am certain it's tasteful.I will be back soon! Thank you all. 😃 Appreciate your service.

I had a surprise coffee for the first time and it tasted just right for my taste. The atmosphere of the store was clean and refreshing with a simple feel.

A very nice cafe. The views out of the large windows are amazing. The tables are arranged in a very convenient fashion, with plenty of space between them even when fully occupied and all of them have good views out of the windows. The matcha latte was very good and the matcha lemon cake was quite good as well.

This is the best Blue Bottle location I’ve ever seen.
A place where you can always enjoy a delicious cup of coffee — with kindness as a bonus.

Blue bottle is one of my favourites but I hate that they give you coffee in paper/plastic cups even when you're staying in. That paper/plastic taste ruins the whole coffee experience.

Great place if you like pretentious service and overpriced coffee served the way they think you should have it, not the way you want it.

Great coffee shop located in the business district of San Francisco. For me it does the best coffee of all the Blue Bottles I've tried in San Fancisco. Located in a building that has a stunning foyer area. Coffee was smooth and tasty.

There was a sour barista when I went. I paid $10 for a matcha latte and I guess i didn't tip enough for her liking and ended up waiting 15 minutes for them to make it. Terrible attitude and service for what should be an upscale experience for the price.
